During the past two weeks
many Of our subscribers in arrears
called and settled up and took new
start. But there are yet many ac-
counts that it is very desirable to
have paid up, in order that needed
improvements to the paper may be
made and our debts paid. The ex-
penses Of publishing a paper are
heavy; machinery will wear out, and
money is constantly needed. We
again request the attention of all sub.
cribers to this matter.

w. D. BRANDON, Esq, who recent.

w. D. BRANDON, Esq, who recent
" returned home here from bis trip
to Europe, states some things he OBJ
served that 90 to snow that the old
country is still behind the new one.
For instance, in some parts visited be
saw more women at work in the fields
than men. The women not only help
to gather the crops but to put them
in. In small fields or lots of ground
they are to be seen digging with
some kind Of q hoe, preparing the
ground for the new crops. But little
plowing is done, as here. As re.
CARDS the crops taken of women eener
ally market them in small carts, pushed
by themselves with the aid Of dogs
attached. The marketing to the
town or cities is done In this way
Large numbers of these little carts
are to be aeen at market place 9, the
railroads being seldom used to con-
vey marketing as is done in this
country.
At the same time farms or fields
are more highly improved than in this
country, everything about them look.
Ing clean and neat, and not a tillable
foot Of earth but what is worked
No fences as general thing exist
One farmer or tiller will cut or work
up to his line and there stop. What
looked little strange to an Ameri-
can was to zee soldier pacing up AID
down in the farming or rural districts
apparently to guard them. This was
the case especially near the borders Of
certain provinces. Through the coun.
try everything has an old or finished
look and in this consists the great con
trast between the old and this country
where everything looks new or as
just begun.
As to storms upon the ocean, of
which his vessel experienced some
heavy ones on the returning trip, they
ere peculiar in that they come up
suddenly. You have no signs ol
warning Of their coming, as upon the
land. You hear thunder aud but
seldom see lightning.
The daily papers in Europe mus
generally be obtained at news stands
upon the streets and are not carried
about and sold by boys as here
Their papers are 30 filed with theil
own matters transpiriDg that theJ
seem to give but little attention t.
anything transpiring in the United
States, many of them apparently moi
yet knowing that there is such {
place as the United States. Thes'
and many other interesting matter
that Mr.. Brandon states might be o
interest to our readers did time ant
space permit giving them.

A Den Of Gamblers Broken In.


Our efficient and watchful mar
shall, MIR. l.. A. Hatcher, discov-
cred a gambling den last Satur-
day night and by Monday morn
ing nine negroes, two women aad
seven men, were posing behind
the iron bars OF the county's recep-
ton room. Monday they had
hearing before Justice James and
were remandel back to jail in de-
fault of bond, and it Is more than
likely that these gay and festive
gamblers will not gambol on the
green in the sunny spring time.
For some time Mr.. Hatcher has
been waiting for an opportunity
to raid this den, and he is to be
congratulated on the successful
manner in which he did it. The
house where the gambling was
carried on was used jointly as
residence by two soiled doves, one
Of them a white woman who has
fallen to the uttermost depths Of
moral depravity, and the other a
negro woman. A warrant was
sworn out for the white woman,
also, but she absented herself be-
fore it could be served.

A Brace OF Female Beggars.

Last Monday two white women,
one of them advanced IN years,
applied to Mayor Kaieler for aid.
They told a seemingly plausible
story to the effect that they were
on their way from Pennsylvania
to Eufaula and were put off here
because their money was exhaust
ed and they could pay their way
no further on the train. The
manner in which they told their
story enlisted the sympathy OF all
who heard it, AMI several dollars
were soon made up for them,
They left on the next train and
probably stopped at the first sta
with the same story. Tuesdays
Recorder says that they worked
Amerlcus In the same manner.
